Hi all,

I use GMF 2.0 with Eclipse Europa 3.3.

I didn't found how to remove the actions "cut"/"copy"/"paste" from the
popup menu. I know how to remove "deleteFromModel" and "deleteFromDiagram"
like this :

<popupContribution
class=" org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.providers.DiagramContextM enuProvider ">
<popupStructuredContributionCriteria objectClass="MyEditPart"/>
<popupPredefinedItem id="deleteFromDiagramAction"
remove="true"/>
<popupPredefinedItem id="deleteFromModelAction"
remove="true"/>
</popupContribution>

But what must I specify for actions in sub-menu ?

Regards,
Sylvain

Hi there, what is the best practice to override these actions? In our
application there's the need to copy & paste an item, and since our
application transforms gmf diagrams in seam web pages via jetemitters,
we provide a objecttype_[timestamp] as node id when one creates an item,
to avoid duplicate id in the webpages.
But happens that if you copy & paste an item these id remain the same
,avoiding somehow the overriden "on creation event" method of the
corresponding
node that would place a new timestamp.
Debugging leads me into thread, runnable methods far away, so where is
the right place to look for me to intercept the "on paste event" method?

Regards

Paolo

Thanks you Prathibha for your answer.

Your solution allows to disable actions in the contextual menu.

BUT, is there a way to remove these actions from the contextual menu ?
like I can do with "deleteFromModel" for example.

More generally, I would like to control the content of the contextual menu.

I have found !

All predefined items can be found in the plugin.xml of
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.providers plugin.

So I was able to remove "cut" action for exemple like this :

<popupPredefinedItem id="cut" path="/editMenu/copyGroup" remove="true"/>
